Configuring the virtual desktop
Available for Windows XP and Windows Vista client PCs, the virtual desktop feature
completely isolates the SSL VPN session from the client computer’s desktop environment.
All data is encrypted, including cached user credentials, browser history, cookies,
temporary files, and user files created during the session. When the SSL VPN session
ends normally, the files are deleted. If the session ends due to a malfunction, files might
remain, but they are encrypted, so the information is protected.
When the user starts an SSL VPN session with virtual desktop enabled, the virtual
desktop replaces the user’s normal desktop. When the virtual desktop exits, the user’s
normal desktop is restored.
OK/Cancel Select OK to save the configuration and Cancel to exit the
configuration window without any saving changes made. If you select
OK, the main portal configuration window appears.
